Monty Python’s Flying Circus war eine britische Comedy-Show der Komikergruppe Monty Python. Ursprünglich wurde sie von 1969 bis 1974 vom britischen Sender BBC ausgestrahlt. Die Pythons zeigten hier in vier Staffeln und insgesamt 45 Folgen Sketche, welche sich durch hintersinnigen und vor allem schwarzen und surrealen Humor auszeichneten. Zusätzlich wurden zwei Folgen für das deutsche Fernsehen produziert. Die Serie gilt sowohl formal als auch inhaltlich als wegweisend für das Genre der Comedy; insbesondere der Verzicht auf eine Pointe im Anschluss an eine besonders absurde Szene war revolutionär und wirkte stilbildend.
